Sizes range from 2’ x 3’ (6 square feet) to 20’ x 30’ (600 square feet.) with a minimum ceiling height of 10 feet. A select few unit sizes have 14-foot ceilings convenient for storing long objects from ladders to surfboards. If the unit size listed below has an H after the size it has a 14’ ceiling. We have many sizes with roll-up garage doors and second floor carpeted units perfect for furniture

Our top-notch San Mateo Self Storage Units are 10 feet in height but we recommend not stacking above 8 feet.  Thi is perfect as it leaves plenty of airflow at the top of the unit, which is an important feature. The following calculations are based on items being maximized in the unit and stacked to the full 8 feet.
